Write or draft the summary, and approve it

A few lines under the video, so a client can read what you said as well as watch it. Drafted from the transcript alone, or written by you, and never sent until you approve it.

What you need first

  • A video with a transcript
  • AI drafting on your plan, if you want it drafted rather than written

The summary is what a client reads under the video when they do not have six minutes. By the end of this page one will be written, approved, and on its way to the client page.

Find the Client summary box

It sits under the transcript on the same card. The placeholder tells you your two options: write what the video covers, or draft it from the transcript.

The video card with the transcript saved, the Read the transcript disclosure, an empty Client summary box, Save summary and Draft summary
  1. 1The transcript, to read the draft against
  2. 2Save summary, for one you wrote
  3. 3Draft summary, from the transcript alone

Click Draft summary, or write it yourself

Draft summary appears when the video has a transcript and AI drafting is on for your shop. It reads the transcript and nothing else: not the drawings, not the estimate, not the internet. If drafting is off, or your workspace has no model key configured, the button is not there and you write the summary yourself, which is the path the pictures on this page took. The words in them are an example typed into a demo workspace, not a real client's recording.

Read it against the video

The line under the buttons is the rule: drafted from the transcript and nothing else, and approving puts it on the client page. Edit it in the box like any other text. It is your words going out under your name.

  1. 1Approve summary, once you have read it
  2. 2What it was drafted from, and what approving does

Click Save summary, then Approve summary

Saving keeps the words and leaves the card In review. Approving is the separate press that makes them client-facing. Nothing you have not approved appears on the walkthrough page, ever.

Discard rather than edit an approved summary in place

Discard clears an approved summary and asks twice before it does, because it is deleting words you already read and signed off. The card goes back to In review and you write it again.

What happens next

An approved summary has somewhere to go. The next guide is the walkthrough link, which is the page the client actually opens.
